Description

In Ayurvedic Yoga Massage workshops, we demonstrate a short ayurvedic yoga massage sequence to massage, mobilise and stretch a particular part of the body.

We’ll then split into pairs, so you can practice what you’ve just learned on each other, ask any questions that might arise, and receive a great massage as well.

The focus is on learning to offer a very effective massage in a way that is comfortable and enjoyable for you. We focus on energy, breathing, refining awareness in the touch and body mechanics, apart from the massage technique (massage strokes and stretches), to make sure that both you and the people you are massaging will have a wonderful experience and feel great during and after your session.

Massage can be a wonderful meditation both for the person giving and the person receiving it. You are present, focused on the breathing and the sensations in your body/your hands (depending on whether you are giving or receiving), and having a loving intention towards your client. At the end of the workshops usually all the participants are blissful and beaming!

In this shoulders, neck, head and face massage workshop, Despina will cover how to massage the neck, head and face, and some relevant stretches. Despina often do this with clients at the beginning and end of the massage as it’s so relaxing, and most people tend to tense in the neck and head.

Offering a neck and head massage to your friends will help them feel light, wonderful and able to relax and rest. The sequence can also often really help with tension related headaches and insomnia. The neck and head massage is extremely effective at releasing tension and at the same time one of the most enjoyable parts of the body to massage.
